I would say its almost too stiff for the roads. I tested the version that vinylvillan had and found it almost uncomfortable! Very fast though.

I hear ya, but if the guy wants a Raleigh with that paint job, why not go 531c rather than boiler pipes! ;o)

10 mins to go. In Aus but will ship to UK $60 Aus atm.

Seems a bit overpriced to me. It has been on gumtree for ages too which would indicate others agree. At the mo it is on ebay too with a starting price of £550, 7Hrs left and no bidders. I'd say that is better.

Or for that money this is nicer IMHO. For over 500 notes I'd want a good bit of DA or Record.

Nowt to do with me.

i find that highly unlikely. more like $60 to melb, $300 to uk (~£140)

yeah that's pretty nice, thanks for the advice. are there any other sites you can buy fixed from like that one (http://www.gruppobikes.co.uk)?

internal wedge for the bars is easy to damage and it will often sieze. Especially if you're not used to fitting them. I had a couple in quick succession when they were new out...

they came out in the 80's??
i always liked them, if you fit them carefully, and don't need to change the bars again, you should have no probs.
